Lou Williams is going all-out for the Sixth Man of the Year award and he might just win it.

For the second consecutive night, Williams connected on a 3-pointer late in the game to send the Toronto Raptors to a thrilling victory.

With 34 seconds remaining, Williams pulled up for a dagger triple to send the Raptors to an eventual 107-104 win over the Miami Heat on Saturday. This comes on the heels of his game-winner against the Orlando Magic on Friday.

Williams finished with a team-high 29 points on 9-of-18 shooting and was a plus-20 in 30 minutes of work.

The loss by the Heat cuts their tragic number to one game, where any combination of a Heat loss or Boston Celtics win eliminates the Heat from the postseason.

Toronto's win also marks the first time the Raptors have escaped South Beach with a victory since 2008.
